- The long-nosed cusimanse is a diploid organism with n=18. According to wikipedia, the cusimanse has a weasel-shaped body with dark or reddish brown fur and weighs ~2 lbs at maturity. Laotia For each of the following, indicate the total number of chromosomes, the number of pairs of homologous chromosomes and the number of pairs of sister chromatids. Indicate if the cell in question is diploid or haploid and if the daughter cell will be diploid or haploid. A. A non-dividing skin cell Total number of chromosomes: Number of pairs of homologous chromosomes: Number of pairs of sister chromatids: boxe Diploid or haploid? B. A cell is metaphase of mitosis: Total number of chromosomes: Number of pairs of homologous chromosomes: Number of pairs of sister chromatids: Diploid or haploid? Daughter cell diploid or haploid? C.

- Name the dark, linear, thread like structures that are in some of the onion root tip cells. What molecule of heredity do they contain?arrow_forwardThe image shows a section of a root tip of Broad Bean with cells from the region of cell division, just behind the root cap. Five cells have been numbered (1-5). Which statements accurately describe the mechanism by which the cells ensure that chromosomes are passed successfully to the next generation? Select ALL that apply. A - Cell 2 is undergoing anaphase to separate the duplicated chromosomes to opposite poles of the cell. B - Cell 1 lacks chromosomes and cannot contribute genetic material to future cells. C - Cells 4 and 5 have recently divided and are now haploid, containing half of a full set of chromosomes after division. D - Cells 4 and 5 have recently divided and have a cell plate that formed between them. E - Cell 3 is providing a mechanism for increasing genetic diversity in the daughter cells.arrow_forwardthe second one pleasearrow_forward
- The figure below shows the life cycle of the fungus Neurospora. The adult stage of the Neurospora is a multicellular haploid: a. Between which two stages of the Neurospora life cycle do most mitotic cell divisions occur? b. Neurospora has an arginine amino acid synthesis pathway shown below: Suppose I have a neurospora strain that has a mutation such that it will not grow unless I supplement the media (food) with arginine (but not with citrulline or ornithine). What gene is mutated? Explain your reasoning. c. Suppose I take the strain above that only grows with arginine supplements and cross it to a different mutant Neurospora strain that grows with arginine and citrulline supplements but not ornithine supplements. Assming genes A, B and C are unlinked and there is only one mutation per strain: i) What percentage of the progeny will grow on ornithine? ii) What percentage on citrulline? iii) What percentage on arginine?
